“Look how they drew my boy.”

In this episode, Mark and Dan discuss the artistic contributions of the father of spaghetti webbing, who longtime listeners of this show may know as Dan’s “bosom buddy” and the man who reinvented the look of Spider-Man and his world by utterly destroying the house-style that John Romita Sr. had defined for two decades of Spider-Man comics, it’s Todd McFarlane.

If you want to read along with their conversation, they’ll be talking specifically about Amazing Spider-Man issues #298-325 and 328, and Spider-Man #1-14 and 16. And, if you would like to hear Dan’s interview with Todd McFarlane, you can listen to his conversation with him at a press event for the release of the “Venom” Blu-Ray: https://youtu.be/XA5l65uWPCQ?si=bAC6fXeuXSyYNB_S
